question about food & wine fest

[Mr_Tom_Morrow]

I have not attended the food & wine fest in many years,and a the time when i did go i was not of age to consume alcohol so im not really familiar with how it works,is it a free sampling of the wines or is a buy by the glass type deal

 

[coasterphil]

They have free scheduled wine tasting seminars, but most people just buy their booze by the glass at the kiosks.

ok cool,im goin this year,and i wanna make it well worth the trip up there,just drinking samples wont do that :zipit:

I read on another thread (which I can't find now:brick that some people get a Disney card to use at the kiosks.

Disney Gift card? Can you purchace them at the park?

Thanks!

 

[Captain Hank]

Yup, Disney Gift Cards can be purchased at nearly every WDW Merchandise location, along with Guest Relations and The Disney Store.

There is a special design for F&W that you can get at most F&W merch locations.

I will be there for the food and wine festival, one of my most fav time of the year to visit the world, and have found wine prices range between 4-9 dollars a glass. :dazzle: Bottoms up!!!

Gift Cards! who Knew! this is a great idea which I'll be sure to implement. makes it so much easier!

how much are the food samples i heard they were $5 and were little cups.

 

[coasterphil]

The prices range from $2-5 for each sample, and the servings are indeed small. Don't expect to be full after 2-3 samples.

 

[LeeLee D]

Thanks for the replies. I will certainly get a gift card. Keep my on budget and I won't have to fiddle with lots of cash!

Thanks!!

Just got back. All food is between $2.50 and $5.00. It is NOT in a little cup, but depending on what you get you may get more food than other places. On average, you will get 3 or 4 bites of meat, if it is any kind of meat dish and about 5 fork or spoonfuls of whatever else is on your plate. The cheese kiosk was very worth it I say, you got 3 decent size wedges! I like cheese alot.

 

[Tiggerish]

I like cheese a lot, too, and I am looking forward to the cheese plate even more now that you've given it a thumbs-up! :wave:

Are all the kiosks open all day? :shrug:

I am going with a friend on Sat and we wanted to go to EPCOT in the late afternoon/early evening.

We want to try to beat the heat, but I don't want to miss any of the yummyness.

Yes the kiosk open at 11am til park close. The Gift card is on a wristband so it is easy to hand and scan to the CM. You can get your F&W Gift Card at the Vacation Planning booths or at most merhcandise location inside the park!

I have some money on a Disney Reward card; could I then use that at the F&W kiosks as well?

 

[pjammer]

I'm not completely sure, but if you could use that money at any other F&B/Merch location then yes you could use it there as it is all the same system.

I believe the kiosks follow the World Showcase hours. They start serving food around 11 am.
